Streams every Thursday at 7pm PT and then rebroadcasts the following Friday at 12am and 9am PT on Twitch.

Orym's family tree as requested by BH:

unknown - Alma          Derrig - Nell
        |                      |
        |       |---------|---------|---------|
       Orym - Will      Leeta     Maeve    Baernie
                      (trip#1)   (trip#2)  (trip#3)

(I think this is right?)

Looks good to me, just adding:

  • Baernie is the one who has the connection to Keyleth with the big cure.
  • Leeta is the Master of Defense
  • Maeve is the generic powerful druid

Man, that was a really sweet first half.

  • Kiki is so angry. And I like "learn how to use it"
  • I guess Orym is saving up Vorb reveal to...after they come back and get things to help Kiki heal?
  • Alma is so lovely. She bakes, does that mean pies aren't a thing in Zephrah that Orym never had any until EXU?
  • Chet is Orym's dad?! He killed Optimus Prime! He's either already or is gonna try to fuck Orym's mom apparently
  • "Whitestone is for lovers. Zephrah is for fuckers" and "Zephrah phucks" should be on merch

Little slip of the tongue from the illustrious DM. He probably meant to say "perennial flowers" but instead said "perineum flowers" and perineum is the scientific/medical term for the taint. 😅

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think it's supposed to be "perennem" based on the subtitles. Very close to perineum so, like the cast said at the end of the episode, even if he said it correctly the giggling would still happen.

Agreed, they're eager to jump on poor Matt for the slightest flaws in the hundreds of thousands of details in the massive world he's built for them to play in.

It's a long one tonight folks!

What's everyone excited about? What are you expecting this episode?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Personally, I love that we're in Zephrah. Excited to meet Kiki again and probably Orym's family?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm hoping we get some buffs or something for the group. It's time to kick that smarmy wizards ass.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I doubt much ass kicking will happen before October when the m9 "beyond the solstice" live event is planned. Guess that it rescuing beau Caleb and maybe vax

I used to have the bookmark for the episode run times but I can't find it. What is it again?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I actually don't know. I got this off Tumblr. If you find it again, please share!

I believe this is it: https://nightbot.tv/t/criticalrole/commands

Search “runtime” and it should show the episodes runtime, I believe updated some time in the afternoon of an episode airing

Lots of "la di da" song references and there is a total of 3:

  • [Snoop Dogg ft Nanci Fletcher - Lodi Dodi]
  • 04:41:00 [Dr Dre - The Next Episode] "La di da di daaa"
  • 04:41:15 [La Bouche - Be My Lover (Travis solo)]

Oh so they're meeting Kiki and not even gonna mention Vorb screaming? Is this gonna be an even harder gut punch than it already is whenever she actually finds out?
